How do I check my data usage?

We currently do not offer a data usage monitor, but here are some free apps that you can use to easily check your usage.

Directly on your Android device

You can check your current month’s usage right on Android. Navigate to Settings > Wireless & Networks > Data Usage.

For the most accurate look at your data usage, you will need to specify your current billing cycle. As well as data monitoring, you can also set data usage warnings by adjusting the slider—so when you reach the threshold you've designated, you'll receive a notification about your usage.

This setting often shows the complete amount of data you've used since you purchased your iOS device. In order to view the most accurate data usage, scroll down to the bottom of the page and tap Reset Statistics as soon as you insert your AOW Data SIM. This will reset your data usage counter to zero.

App: Data Usage

Available for both Android and Apple devices.

Some features of this app include the ability to track time periods mirroring a user's billing cycles, separate tracking for cellular and Wi-Fi data, historical data usage reports, and the ability to set thresholds and receive notifications for exceeded limits.

App: MobiStats

Available for both Android and Apple devices.

This app allows users to view stats that track usage behaviour so that you can make changes to your data usage.

App: Advanced Data Usage Tracker

Available for Apple devices only.

If you've been overdoing your cellular usage, the app will suggest you reduce your consumption by a certain amount per day.

App: My Data Manager

Available for both Android and Apple devices.

Using My Data Manager, you can connect multiple devices to track data. If you're on a shared plan with family members, you can connect everyone to monitor usage of all devices.

Apple SIM

To check how much data you’ve used on your current plan:

Navigate to Settings on your iPad.

Tap Cellular (or Mobile) Data and then choose Manage AlwaysOnline account. Here you’ll be able to see how much data you have used and how much is left, as well as the expiry of the current plan.
